Saddle broken

[jjbrannon]

  Usually, the term applies to wild horses which have been tamed.

Here's another take [adapted from an email to Math's mom, my XSO Linda]:

I'm home on blood thinners.

A pulmonary embolism is a blood clot to the lungs.

A saddle embolism has two heads; id est, looks like a saddle.

In the ER each iteration of reports

Holy crap.

Glad they were able to use their disintegrator ray to clear things up.

Seconded.

All I could think of was how if I didn't get better it would spoil my family and friends' Christmas.

That's the reason for the interdiction on long-distance driving that prevents a trip to Easton in January.

All in all, this Solstice ~marked a graced birth observance, Michael.

JJ, first of course, I'm so glad you made it through! Yeah, that sounds incredibly scary

Thanks, Sarah.

No, I was late and fair's fair. You're right, I don't need the stress.

The only civil suit I every strongly pursued was over my parentally kidnapped son and daughter where the courts did everything possible to prevent the execution of justice in both cases because I had the wrong combination of chromosomes.

What's wrong with Quilly? I only learned the Balloonatic Bomber's LJ the other day. I'll check that.

You keep well. I know you've had major financial problems with all the translocations and job changes these last few years, Sarah.

May the lights of God burn eternally for you.

Michael, how could I do less than emulate the example of the fellow who suffered a coronary infarct on an airplane from O'Hare and, upon landing in Lehigh, calmly gathered his luggage before surrendering himself to the ruthless care of his beautiful bride.

There are standards to maintain.
